  3. * What is LASER ? LASER: L A ight mplification by Stimulated * What is Light? Electromagnetic Radiation . Carries Energy in the direction of propagation Wave nature: Transverse Wave i.e. Oscillation of electric & mission of Radiation z magnetic fields are transverse to the direction of propagation.

Wavelength about 3 m or 10 feet long. Wavelength about 3 cm or 1 inch long. Wavelengths 400-700 nm Wavelength about 30 x diameter of hydrogen atom FIG. 2
  4. What is Stimulated Process? Light Matter Interaction Simplest Example : An Atom Nucleus (protons & neutrons) and electron shell (electrons) Bohr model of atom Electrons can only have certain values of energy — not all values of energy allowed! Electrons can switch between energy levels by gaining or losing energy Electrons can gain energy by absorbing a little packet of light — photon: Absorption Can lose energy by emitting a photon: Spontaneous Emission Photon Energy E = 4- El = h v Planck constant h = 6.626068 X 10-34 J-S Inside an Atom Nucleus Electron Orbit 02003 HowStuffWotks FIG .3 nucleus FIG. 4

  6. Einstein theorized and proposed that a photon passing near an excited electron of the same energy would cause the approached electron to return to its ground state and in doing so release its photon of light. Two identical photons would now exist. Stimulated Emission Photons Photon Laser Emits Radiation by Stimulated Process FIG. 7
